MPU is a weekly 4-hour session facilitated by SJFS’s brain health professionals who lead participants through creative activities. Participants learn practical skills to help with early memory loss in a friendly and supportive setting with a group of peers. The Arts and Minds Community emphasizes creative self-expression, skill building, memory enhancement, emotional processing, and communication through the arts. Participants engage in lessons and discussions on interesting topics about wellness and the arts before creating something themselves. The mediums used vary each week and include creative writing, painting, music, photography, sculpture, movement, and more.

No experience in the arts necessary! Thursdays 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM, pre-screening required.
